Other Fuel System Related Problems of the 2009 Infiniti QX56

Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

My car ran out of gas on the freeway. The fuel gauge still read 1/4. I have noticed this several times, that I know I am near empty based on mileage but my gas gauge still reads 1/4. I found a recall on-line that states that this car is affected but when I contact Nissan na and my dealer, both say, based on my VIN, there is no recall. This is what I found online: recall id # 68281 - fuel system, other:storage:fuel gauge system recall date: Mar 03, 2010 model affected: 2009 Infiniti Qx56 summary: Nissan is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 titan, armada, and Infiniti Qx56 vehicles. The instrument panel fuel gauge may inaccurately display that the vehicle still has some fuel, typically about one quarter tank, when the fuel tank is empty. Consequences: this could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall on the highway, which could cause a crash. Remedy: dealers will replace the fuel sender unit inside the fuel tank with a new improved sender card. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on March 22, 2010. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261. Potential units affected: 340000 notes: Nissan north America, inc. . Read more...
